 Here's a couple: no character-based style sheets. Gross format changes to
 subscribed data do not survive updates. 

 Instead, we get something moderately useless, in my opinion: a grammar
 checker.

 While I like the trend towards modular software, I dislike unit upgrade
 pricing in the face of it. For example, I couldn't care less about either the
 equation editor or the grammar checker, but I have to pay for them if I
 upgrade.
